In one aspect thereof this invention provides a method to increase data throughput in an Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplex (OFDM) wireless communications system. The method includes modeling data throughput as a function of received Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) with a sigmoid function to produce a throughput curve characterized as having a lower knee region and an upper knee region; and performing a gradient ascent search along the throughput curve by varying the power of a plurality of sub-carriers so as to remove power from any sub-carrier having a received SNR to the left of the lower knee region, and to re-allocate the removed power to sub-carriers having a received SNR to the right of the lower knee region.
